FROME Tennis Club can now offer even more places to low-income families or adopted children through its junior ‘reaching out’ scheme after the club secured a grant from Sport England.
The scheme provides free coaching for juniors aged 4 to 18 from low-income families or adopted children, and following this grant the club now has more spaces for those aged four to seven.
The club says, “The number of places is limited, but has now been expanded thanks to the grant which means that we now have additional spaces for children aged four to seven. We also provide free club membership for these children. If you are a parent or guardian that qualifies (or is likely to qualify on your child starting school) for pupil premium funding, then you are likely to be eligible for the scheme.
“Please speak confidentially to one of our coaching team or email coaching@frometennis.net and tell them that your child has qualified (or is likely to qualify) for pupil premium funding. There is no need to provide written evidence. Continuation on the programme requires a minimum attendance commitment.”
